A HEARTFELT AND DEEPLY HUMAN CONNECTION
"Butterfly Like Sunshine Yellow" by Grace Balogun is one of those rare books that bypasses technical perfection and speaks straight to the soul. The poetry itself is simple, sometimes even unpolished, but that is precisely what makes it so powerful. Between each poem, the author shares brief reflections on her lived experience that inspired her words: moments of loss, love, healing, and hard-won hope.
Together, the poems and prose form a tapestry of raw emotion and authenticity. There is no pretense here, no attempt to impress, only a genuine voice reaching out to connect. I found myself unexpectedly moved, often pausing to sit with her honesty. For that reason, I gladly give this book five stars.
